Studenls Favor Abolition Of SAFAC Four To One By ISIDRO GARCIA And TOM ADAMS Ol the Hurricant Stall A poll taken hy the Hurricane indicates that about Si per cenl of students polled favor transferring control of the Student Activity Fee from the Student Activity Fee Allocation Committee (SAFAC) to the Undergraduate Student Body Government (USBG). Of 40 people polled, 33 said they favor the proposed referendum, five said USBG is not capable of allocating the funds responsibly and two had no opinion. A special referendum election will be held Feb. 9, 10 and 11 to determine if students favor transferring control of the Studeni Activity Fee from SAFAC to the Senate. If students vote for the referendum, the results would be forwarded in legislative form to Vice President for Student Affairs Dr. William Butler who would then make a decision.
